Hester Maxey married Henry Wilkey - their oldest being Bennett Maxey Wilkey b. 1793 - who fathered 18 or so children in Moores Prairie Twp., Jefferson Co., IL. Hester came to Illinois - and probably was one of the reasons the other MAXEY's came there -- she was there in 1816. Virginia Black File: Jesse was wounded while traveling along the road near Asher's Station. Seeing that escape by flight was impossible, he fell face downward on the ground. His pursuers came up, scalped him, thrust a hunting knife into his throat and left him to die. We was found by his friends, carried into the fort and nursed back to life. 1788 Gallatin Tennessee. Jesse lived another 20 years but received his nourishment through an opening in his throat, as the scar tissue which formed over his esophagus prevented him from swallowing properly. He was a tall, light complexioned man weighing at least 200 pounds, but later became very bent and thin as the result of his disability. He is buried at Douglas cemetery, three miles north of Gallatin, Tennessee.	Jesse Maxey

7258	From Katherine McClure's file: John's family moved to Izard County, Arkansas prior to 1858. John served in the Civil War. He enlisted in the 27th Arkansas Infantry, Company F, on May 21, 1862 at Locust Grove, Arkansas. His enlistment was for a period of one year. He gave his age as 22 on the enlistment form. John was medically discharged in August 1863. John married Sarah Angeline M. Gilcrest. Sarah was born February 8, 1839, in Tennessee. The 1880 Stone County, Arkansas census shows John and Sarah living in Sylamore Township. Living with them was Sarah's mother, Margaret Gilcrest, age 74, born in Virginia. The 1920 Stone County census shows John, age 79, and Sarah, age 81, living in Sylamore Township.	John H Maxey

By his father's will he received, after his mother's death, half of the land on which they lived in Goochland County, Virginia. This part of Goochland later became part of Cumberland County. There is a deed dated 12 April 1748 in Goochland County, Book 5/400-401 by which his brother, Silvanus, conveyed to Walter the remaining 200 acres of land. It reads as follows: "This indenture maid this twelvth day of April one Thousand Seven hundred and forty eight Between Silvanus Maxey of the County of Albermall of the one part and Walter Maxey of the County of Goochland of the other part Witnesseth that the sd Silvanus Maxey for divers goods causes and Considerations him theirunto moving but more Especially for the Valliable Concideration of thirty two pounds Currant Money of virginia to him in hand paid the Recept whereof he doth hereby acknowledge and himself therewith fully Sattisfied Contented and paid hath given granted Bargained Sold aliend Enfeoffd and Confirmd and by these presents doth give grant bargin Sell alien Enfeoff and Confirm unto the said Walter Maxey his heirs Executors administrators or asigns one Certain Trect of Land Statute lying and being in the County aforesaid which sd Trect or percell of Land lying and being South side James River and on both sides Jones' Creek Containing two hundred Acres more or less it being part of a Trect of Land Patent in the name of Edward Maxey deceased bearing date the Seventeenth Day of August one thousand Seven hundred twenty five it being the East most part of the said Tract and devided from the Residue by a line of new markt Trees deviding between he the sd Walter Maxey and the Silvanus Maxey and from thence Wm Blackburns line from thence to Nathanil Bassits line thence to Edward Maxeys Junr Line thence along the sd Line to John Radfords line thence along John Radfords line to the deviding line TO HAVE AND TO HOLD porsess and Enjoy the said Trackt or passel of Land with all the appertenances therunto Belonging unto the said Walter Maxey his and asigns for ever to the onley proper use of him and his hairs for Ever and the said Silunus Maxey Doeth fourthe agree with the said Walter Maxey that he will for Ever herafter Warrant and for ever Defend the aforesaid Land premisseis from himself his Hairs Executors administrators and from aney other person or persons whatsoever Lawfully haveing Claining or Rightfully pertening to have aney Right Title or Intruest Clame or Demand into or out of the said Tract or parsall of Land IN WITNESS whereof the aforesaid Silvanus Maxey haeth hereunto Set his hand fixed his Seal the Day and year above written "Signed Seal and Delivered Silvanus Maxey "In presences of us Elizabet Maxey "Test John Radford William Maxey Nath Maxey Walter sells part of this land as shown in a deed in Cumberland County Virginia, Book 3/350-351, on 7 December 1762 (record is stained).

A Ms. Clark has a story that Walter moved from Cumberland County to Bedford County (in part that became Franklin County in 1785) because his honor had been called into question by the parish. It seems he had neglected to name son Walter Jr. (16 years old) as a tithable. A suit was begun against the father 28 June 1762; he did not contest it (that would have entailed taking a stand against the King) and was fined 50 pounds of tobacco for the use of Southam parish. (I have not checked records for this suit.) The last record I have been able to locate concerning Walter is his will in?Franklin County, Will Book 1, pp. 69-70. Franklin County, Virginia Will Book 1, p 69-70 In the name of God Amen I Walter Maxey of Franklin county being of Sound and Perfect Memory Thanks to Almighty God for it do make and Ordain this my last will and Testament in manner and form following I recommend my Soul to God who gave it hoping through the Merits of my Saviour Jesus Christ to Receive Pardon & forgiveness for all my Sins.

Maxey of Hardy Virginia, now deceased: "The Maxey Cemetery containing the unmarked graves of Wal Maxey, Sr. who died in 1791 and near kin....is located on the old Maxey Plantation on a sloping hillside overlooking the Blackwater River in Franklin Co., Va. Their remains are to be removed and reinterred on a plot at Mt. Ivy Baptist Church which is a very fitting location as it is in the general vicinity in which they lived and died and more accessible to travel. Their peaceful slumbers are being interrupted by the rising waters of Smith Mountain Lake formed by a dam that is being constructed a few miles below by Appalachian Power Company. All expense of plot, removal and reinterment is being taken care of by the power company. Descendants of this brave and courageous tribe of Maxey's are scattered in many states now and a few in foreign countries." The Wal Maxey that Mae refers to was Walter Maxey, the last surviving child of Edward and Susannah Maxey, the Progenitors of the Maxey's. That is the reason that the reunion is held at the Dam each year. ___________________________________________	Walter Justinian Maxey

7298	From the History of Callaway County Missouri, published in 1884, which is not always accurate: Harry May settled on May's Prairie, in Callaway county, in 1820, where he built a horse mill and opened a race track. The race track became a place of note, and a great many races were run upon it. On a certain occasion, the Willinghams and Kilgores, of Audrain county, borrowed Sanford Jameson's fine race nag, James, filled her mane and tail full of sheep-burs, and took her to May's race track, to run against a crack pony, known as Nick Biddle, which had been brought from Kentucky, by Thomas, David and Singleton Shehan. The mare presented such a poor appearance with the burs in her mane and tail, that the bets were all in favor of the pony, and nearly every one present staked some money on the favorite. Colonel Jeff. Jones, who was a boy then, was there with $7.50 in his pocket, and he bet $5.00 of his money on the pony. When the race came off, the mare beat the pony 250 yards in a run of 600, and there were some pretty long faces in the crowd that witnessed the result. Mr. Jameson after- ward sold his little mare to a gentleman from Louisiana, for a large sum of money, and the latter won $80,000 with her, while he had her. She made the fastest time on record in the United States, in a race of 600 yards. Mr. May's children were Gabriel, Hannah (Mrs. Joseph Sitten), Frances (Mrs. Stewart), Susan (Mrs. Crump), Matilda (Mrs. Robert Arm), Richard, John and Harry, Jr. This land eventually became Fulton's airport.
